Hey, you stole my idea with those stairs :P
I was trying to build an underground house ;)

Wow, awesome creations, Darl181 !!
I haven't played a lot underground, but I built a few things :

Oh, and yeah, I understood that a better use of the touchpad is very important...

Any chance you can lower the FOV? It's a little hard to look around underground. Other than that, i'd say it's awesome ^_^

Darl that was absolutely epic! O.O At first I looked at the top structures then when i saw everything you built underground I was astonished.

Chockosta do you plan to post a sav file of those maps?

Also it would be nice if we couldn't get that far inside walls, so view doesn't get strange when too close from walls.

Lol, CubeField :P
This was ported to Nspire in Lua and to z80 in Axe.
And it is faster on the z80 O.O (and it could be even faster with Full mode *.*)

Doesn't you mean increasing the fovy ? A lower fovy reduces the field of view...
About increasing the fovy, I'm not sure. High fovys make me really uncomfortable.

Chockosta do you plan to post a sav file of those maps?
Well, it contains developpement features and couldn't be opened with the public release.
But I'm creating a huge castle now, and should post the save file soon.

Also it would be nice if we couldn't get that far inside walls, so view doesn't get strange when too close from walls.
Yes, I hate this too. But the problem is not whith going far inside walls, it is abount displaying faces whith vertices which are behind the player.
But I didn't find a good solution (without awful speed loss)

Well, try to reach 9000 points in the Lua version, and you'll change your mind about which one is faster :P



As you may have noticed, developpement has slowed down a bit. During a week or two, I was coding around three hours a day, and it was really tiring. Currently, I play minecraft (the real one) and spend less hours on the computer, so updates will be less frequent.

Try to reach 20 points in the z80 version with Full mode and you'll change your mind too :P
But yeah, that is the problem with your CubeField. We have to play at a very slow speed for a long time before fun starts :(

Don't worry, there is already a lot to do with this version we already have, so no need for frequent updates ;)
Just don't give up :P

@Chockosta maybe you should make Cubefield so the speed gets faster faster. :P

Also you should play a bit more Minecraft to get familiar with the mechanics and stuff, so it makes it easier to develop nCraft's crafting features and mobs. Just as long as you don't get addicted to the point of stopping nCraft entirely lol I guess :P

I changed some of the code to add more textures and items, and added a further view distance
However, this made the program lag more

You probably want to provide the source code of said changes, so that everyone can benefit ;)

It's pretty obviously fake. nCraft doesn't support soft shadows, let alone all the other "features" in that video.

EDIT: It's even in the video description :P

Oh, sorry if I actually fooled anyone. I was actually using the Nspire Movie Player. I thought it might have been funny to make a video like this.
